    From the video I saw sort of reminds me of Saints row but GTA4 should be a good game though like GTA-SA was

    According to the magazine, GTA IV is currently 66% complete.

    When Niko pulls out a pistol, a crosshair with a simple black cross within a circle shows up on the screen. This could be an indication of manual aiming being available in the game.

    Rockstar's humorous take on the number 69 makes an appearance yet again in GTA IV, the editors of the magazine saw a sign for a "69th Street Diner". Another building called "Twitchins", the GTA version of Brooklyn's Domino's Sugar Factory, is in the game.

    Niko will be able to climb and descend exterior fire escapes and some meetings will take place high in the office buildings of skyscrapers. It's said that from on top of them you'll be able to throw people off.

    Hand to hand combat is also being reworked on for GTA IV, and will feel "much more natural" than before.

    One of the radio stations includes an "Eastern European-sounding" dancing station.

    Players will be able to change their camera views whilst in a car according to their needs. This however is said to still being experimented on, and that Rockstar want to give better control and "immediacy" to players.

    For confirmation, boats will be making a return and the handling is "really nice".

    When selecting your mobile phone, a zoomed-in version of the mobile screen pops up in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen, where you can use its address book to pitch for "jobs" with gang contacts among other things.

    One of the things that makes it easier for Rockstar setting GTA in a fictional New York is that they sometimes get a call from the developers at Rockstar North in Scotland, wanting to know more about a specific building or traffic flow in a certain area, for instance, and using their in-house researchers in NYC they can easily assist the guys back at R* North.

    Dan Houser is quoted saying that the Liberty City in GTA IV is bigger than any single city they've done before, giving a more clear indication of the physical size of the game. He continues saying that the "detail" of the game is the big thing.

    He also confirms Central Park to be in the game, though it's fictional name is still unknown to us.

    Dan says that they're "certainly evolving the way the radio works". He says the same for police behaviour and their reaction to crimes. Nothing further is said about this...
    "Fun ridiculous" weapons is said to be in the game, because R* is not going too "naturalistic".

    Because it's a console game.. I'll agree san andreas looks amazing on pc compared to the PS2 but the controls were horrible. GTA first and foremost is a console game these days. PC will always get a ported version.

    I hope at least this time they will make it possible to use a 360 game controller with the PC version! unlike SA as i'd rather use a console controller for it

    I'm hoping they'll include some of the many improvements Saints Row had, I did find that although good, the GTA games could be infuriating, many things SR did relieved some of that. I'm looking forward to it, but I'm not that excited about it.

    judging by the video, the graphics look awesome yeah it is a shame that pc users have to wait till it's ported from the console version, but hey, what the hell.. there's plenty of games that are available whilst the pc users wait for gta4.

    I gave up with GTA SA on the PS2, I didnt really like the controls. I am currently playing it through on the PC though and its a different story, I am really enjoying it

    I'm guessing GTA4 will be the same for me, however, if it supports the Xbox keyboard and mouse, I'll be one happy bunny!


    Oh and the fewer helicopter missions, the better!
